An aspect of the battle over deconstruction is whether resort to legislative intent might help to determine the content of a statutory text that otherwise, in splendid isolation, could be deconstructed by simply positing different interpretive contexts. I examine the same issue by recounting my own quest for determinate meaning in statutes—a sort of personal legislative history. I do not claim for jurisprudence the role of ensuring faithful reception of the legislature's message, for that is impossible. At best, jurisprudential theory only reduces the degrees of interpretive freedom, and then only probably, not necessarily. The more significant thesis of this article is that all theories of statutory interpretation can only do that much and no more.

Mr. Campbell, a graduate in law at Victoria College and now with the Internal Marketing Department, here challenges the view expounded so often by Professor Laski and current in many circles since the High Court's and Privy Council's decision against the Australian Commonwealth government on the bank nationalisation issue, that our legal system is out of step with forces of social development.

Summary: In the context of the development of the so-called environmental state of law: there is an interesting aspect at ius-philosophical level that takes place directly on the basis of the commitments made by the judges: the value of human dignity in relation to environmental care. This work is intended to demonstrate how respect for dignity is at the heart of the interpretative work and constitutes a guiding criterion in judicial decision-making in recent years of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Argentine Nation concerning the right to drinking water and the protection of water resources. ; Resumen: En el marco del desarrollo del denominado "Estado ambiental de derecho" existe un aspecto interesante a nivel iusfilosófico que tiene lugar directamente sobre la base de los compromisos asumidos por los jueces: el valor de la dignidad humana en relación con el cuidado del ambiente. Este trabajo se propone demostrar cómo en la jurisprudencia de los últimos años de la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación argentina, concerniente al derecho al agua potable y la protección de los recursos hídricos, el respeto de la dignidad se encuentra en el centro de la labor interpretativa y constituye un criterio rector en la toma de decisiones judiciales.
